BRITAIN AND GERMANY.
" MOXARCHS AND MEN." By Cable—Press Association—Copyrigkt. Berlin, October 20. Maximilian Harden's book, "Monarchs and Men," includes a sketch of King Edward. It shows him as a Macchiavelli in his anti-German policy. He assisted France in the Algeciras Convention. The Anglo-Japanese and French treaties were his work.' He created the anti-German trust. It was King Edward's pleasure to paralyse German diplomacy. England had no better commercial traveller. He was a new type of monarch. Until 1902 no King had visited Spiers or heated hell for his rivals, or brought home from every journey a solid business achievement. The book reflects a not uncommon opinion in Germany.
